Tsubokura Yuiko - Midnight in Memphis lyrics

rate me

It's midnight in Memphis

And all the boys are out tonight

Oh midnight in Memphis

My true love is not in sight

The neon's glowin'

But I just don't see the light

I'm followin' my footsteps

Tryin' to find myself a friend

Oh baby, followin' my footsteps

Tryin' to see where they might end

I'm tryin' to break these blues

But I can't even get them to bend

Midnight in Memphis

Well take me away

Midnight in Memphis

It's a long long time before the day

Rollin' down on Beale Street

Can you hear that engine roar

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Rollin' down on Beale Street

There's a girl in every door, yeah

It don't matter what you got

They're after even more

Play it for me one time, boys

I heard the river risin'

Risin' up over my head

Yeah heard the river risin'

And this is what it said

I don't need no live ones

I'll just take care of the dead

Oh midnight in Memphis

Take me, take me away

Midnight in Memphis

It's a long long time before the day

Oh midnight in Memphis

Midnight in Memphis, midnight in Memphis
